The Conference on Asian Pacific American Leadership (CAPAL) and Papa Ola Lōkahi are proud to announce sponsorship of a Native Hawaiian scholar to receive an eight-week paid internship focusing on public health this summer of 2019.
This specific scholarship will be under the 2019 Public Service Scholarship and Internship Program that seeks to increase Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander and Asian American participation in public service. During the eight-week program, the scholar will be placed in a public service internship, awarded $3,000 and travel expenses. All majors are encouraged to apply, but applicants should have an interest in public health and Hawaiian issues. Deadline to apply is Thursday, February 14 at 11:59pm EST. More about the program at https://www.capal.org.
Executive Director Dr. Sheri-Ann Daniels observed, “I have long been aware of the outstanding internship, scholarship, and other educational opportunities offered by CAPAL. This is a wonderful opportunity for our local community. I encourage Native Hawaiian students to apply for the Papa Ola Lōkahi internship and other scholarships offered by CAPAL.”
CAPAL is a nonprofit, nonpartisan educational and professional organization dedicated to building leadership and public policy knowledge within the AANHPI community. All programming is free and open to the public, and takes place in Washington, DC.
